Plasma testosterone, noradrenaline, and adrenaline concentrations during three bicycle ergometer tests of the same total work output (2160 J X kg-1) but different intensity and duration were measured in healthy male subjects. Tests A and B consisted of three consecutive exercise bouts, lasting 6 min each, of either increasing (1.5, 2.0, 2.5 W X kg-1) or constant (2.0, 2.0, 2.0 W X kg-1) work loads, respectively. In test C the subjects performed two exercise bouts each lasting 4.5 min, with work loads of 4.0 W X kg-1. All the exercise bouts were separated by 1-min periods of rest. Exercise B of constant low intensity resulted only in a small increase in plasma noradrenaline concentration. Exercise A of graded intensity caused an increase in both catecholamine levels, whereas, during the most intensive exercise C, significant elevations in plasma noradrenaline, adrenaline and testosterone concentrations occurred. A significant positive correlation was obtained between the mean value of plasma testosterone and that of adrenaline as well as noradrenaline during exercise. It is concluded that both plasma testosterone and catecholamine responses to physical effort depend more on work intensity than on work duration or total work output.  相似文献

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of cool exposure on lipolytic response during prolonged intermediate-intensity exercise in humans. Eight male subjects participated in this study; they performed 120-min cycle ergometer exercise at 60% of maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) in a climatic chamber at 10 degrees C (C) and 30 degrees C (WH). There were no significant differences in oxygen uptake and respiratory exchange ratio between the two conditions during the prolonged exercise. Significant influences of cool exposure were observed in the changes in both heart rate and rectal temperature (p<0.01). Although cool exposure had no significant effects on plasma triglyceride, free fatty acid, and glycerol levels, changes in adrenaline and noradrenaline levels at C were significantly lower than WH during the prolonged exercise (p<0.01). Changes in the ratio of glycerol to noradrenaline (Gly/Nad), as an index of lipolytic efficiency, were significantly high at C as compared with WH (p<0.01). These results suggest that cool exposure has an influence on lipid metabolism during prolonged intermediate-intensity exercise, from the viewpoint of efficiency in lipolysis.  相似文献

Emotional stress is conventionally considered to be associated with tachycardia and enhanced sympathetic activity. The electrocardiogram and plasma catecholamine and lipid concentrations were observed in 21 young healthy women undergoing dental procedures. Ten of these received premedication with the beta-blocking agent oxprenolol and 11 with a placebo, administered on a double-blind randomised basis. Mild tachycardia occurred in the placebo group a few minutes before and a few minutes after dentistry, but there was a reduction in heart rate immediately before and during the procedure. The pattern was similar in the group who received oxprenolol, though the heart rates at each stage were lower. Plasma adrenaline concentrations were much higher in the samples taken during the procedure than in those taken shortly before and after it. Plasma noradrenaline and lipid concentrations remained unchanged. A decrease in heart rate in the face of intense emotional arousal and an increased plasma adrenaline concentration suggest that the expectation or experience of pain may be associated with parasympathetic dominance despite greatly enhanced sympathetic activity.  相似文献

Cannulated brown trout, Salmo trutta , were exposed for 36 h to synthetic water with a low calcium content of pH 5 and similar synthetic water dosed with aluminium to raise the filterable A1 from 5 to 290 μg 1−1 over the 36-h period. There were no significant disturbances of plasma concentrations of glucose, cortisol or catecholamine (adrenaline and noradrenaline) in fish held in water of pH 5. The addition of aluminium to this acidic synthetic water resulted in a generalized endocrine stress response with a four-fold increase in plasma glucose concentration after 18 h and a significant increase in plasma cortisol concentration from 24 h onwards when filterable A1 exceeded 200 μg 1−1. Plasma catecholamine concentration indicated an adrenergic stress response in aluminium-exposed brown trout. A transient doubling in noradrenaline after 6 h in A1 was followed by a larger increase in both plasma adrenaline and noradrenaline concentrations in fish surviving the 36-h exposure to A1.  相似文献

There is evidence that endogenous opioids are involved in blood pressure regulation. In the present study the effect of naloxone on the cardiovascular, sympathoadrenomedullary and renin-aldosterone response to physical exercise was investigated in 8 healthy males. Each subject performed a submaximal work test twice, i.e. with and without naloxone. The test consisted of ergometer bicycling for 10 minutes on 50% of the maximal working capacity (MWC), immediately followed by 10 min on 80% of MWC. Ten minutes before exercise the subjects received in a single blind randomized order a bolus dose of naloxone (100 micrograms/kg) or a corresponding volume of the preservatives of the naloxone preparation (control) followed by a slow infusion of naloxone (50 micrograms/kg/h) or preservatives, respectively. Naloxone was without effect on the exercise-induced changes in systolic blood pressure, heart rate, plasma noradrenaline, renin activity and aldosterone, but the adrenaline response increased markedly. The present results indicate that opioid receptors are involved in the plasma adrenaline response to submaximal exercise, but not in the regulation of systolic blood pressure, heart rate, plasma noradrenaline, renin activity and plasma aldosterone.  相似文献

To elucidate whether sulfoconjugated catecholamines in plasma, especially dopamine, serve as a source of free catecholamines, we examined the change in afterload on the deconjugating activity of catecholamines in isolated Langendorff perfused rat hearts. Dopamine-sulfate was administered under ordinary or high-work-load conditions. Free dopamine in the effluent was increased by the high-work-load of the hearts, whereas conjugated dopamine showed an apparent decrease. These results indicate the possibility that deconjugation of sulfoconjugated catecholamines is accelerated by a high-work-load. To obtain further evidence in humans, we also examined the changes in the plasma levels of free and sulfoconjugated catecholamines in healthy volunteers before and after marathon running. Free dopamine increased 1.99-fold from the baseline value after exercise, whereas conjugated dopamine decreased by 12%. Similarly, the plasma levels of free noradrenaline and adrenaline increased after exercise to 2.45- and 1.51-fold their respective baseline values, while conjugated noradrenaline and adrenaline both decreased. These clinical results, as well as those of the experimental studies, suggest that the increase in plasma free catecholamines after exercise is due not only to increased release from the sympathoadrenal system but also to accelerated conversion from sulfoconjugated catecholamines in the plasma.  相似文献

Eight healthy male volunteers exercised for two 30-min sessions starting 3 h apart on an electronically braked cycle ergometer at a work load (mean 155.9 W, SD 33.4 W) which required an oxygen consumption that was 70% of their maximal rate of oxygen uptake. Venous blood samples were taken through an indwelling cannula over a period of 6 h beginning shortly before the first bout of exercise and were analysed for routine haematological parameters and for lactate, noradrenaline, adrenaline and cortisol. Both bouts of exercise induced an immediate leucocytosis due to rises in lymphocytes and neutrophils but only the first exercise bout induced a substantial delayed neutrophilia. In at least five subjects, changes in lymphocyte and platelet numbers were correlated (Spearman's rank procedure, P less than 0.05) with simultaneous changes in the plasma concentrations of lactate, noradrenaline and adrenaline over the 6-h period studied. Increases in the plasma concentration of cortisol due to exercise correlated positively with the percentage changes in neutrophil numbers at 3 h and 6 h. These results are consistent with the suggestion that the immediate and delayed leucocytosis induced by exercise are mediated respectively by catecholamine and by cortisol.  相似文献

The responses to brief maximal exercise of 10 male subjects have been studied. During 30 s of exercise on a non-motorized treadmill, the mean power output (mean +/- SD) was 424.8 +/- 41.9 W, peak power 653.3 +/- 103.0 W and the distance covered was 167.3 +/- 9.7 m. In response to the exercise blood lactate concentrations increased from 0.60 +/- 0.26 to 13.46 +/- 1.71 mmol.l-1 (p less than 0.001) and blood glucose concentrations from 4.25 +/- 0.45 to 5.59 +/- 0.67 mmol.l-1 (p less than 0.001). The severe nature of the exercise is indicated by the fall in blood pH from 7.38 +/- 0.02 to 7.16 +/- 0.07 (p less than 0.001) and the estimated decrease in plasma volume of 11.5 +/- 3.4% (p less than 0.001). The plasma catecholamine concentrations increased from 2.2 +/- 0.6 to 13.4 +/- 6.4 nmol.l-1 (p less than 0.001) and 0.2 +/- 0.2 to 1.4 +/- 0.6 nmol.l-1 (p less than 0.001) for noradrenaline (NA) and adrenaline (AD) respectively. The plasma concentration of the opioid beta-endorphin increased in response to the exercise from less than 5.0 to 10.2 +/- 3.9 p mol.l-1. The post-exercise AD concentrations correlated with those for lactate as well as with changes in pH and the decrease in plasma volume. Post-exercise beta-endorphin levels correlated with the peak speed attained during the sprint and the subjects peak power to weight ratio. These results suggest that the increases in plasma adrenaline are related to those factors that reflect the stress of the exercise and the contribution of anaerobic metabolism.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Sex-related differences of catecholamine responses were evaluated in nine healthy women and six age-matched men at rest and during incremental treadmill exercise. Heart rate, oxygen uptake (VO2), glucose and lactate blood levels as well as the free plasma catecholamines, noradrenaline and adrenaline, were determined. No significant differences were observed for these parameters between the two groups at rest. The females had relative VO2max and maximal running velocities similar to the males, which points to a comparable dynamic performance ability. However, at identical work loads, noradrenaline, adrenaline and glucose levels were significantly higher in women than in men. Lactate, heart rate and relative VO2 showed a similar tendency at submaximal exercise levels, indicating higher strain at identical stress levels in women. The reason for the higher sympathetic activity in women at identical work loads may be their relatively smaller skeletal muscle mass in relation to the loads during this test.  相似文献

Effect of 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2DG) on plasma adrenaline, glucose and free fatty acid concentrations was studied in dogs under control conditions and after prolonged, exhausting physical exercise. The increase in all three variables in response to 2DG was significantly reduced following the exercise. The results suggest diminished responsiveness of adrenal medulla to the glucopenic stimulus after exhausting exercise.  相似文献

Fetal sheep were thyroidectomized at 80 days' gestation and reoperated at 118-122 days for insertion of vascular catheters. The effects of hypoxaemia and intravenous tyramine infusion on plasma catecholamine concentrations, blood pressure and heart rate were then determined in experiments at 125-135 days' gestation. Age matched intact fetuses were also studied. Thyroidectomy was associated with increased concentrations of noradrenaline, adrenaline and dopamine in some thoracic and abdominal organs, increased noradrenaline concentrations in the cerebellum, and decreased adrenaline concentrations in the hypothalamus, cervical spinal cord, and superior cervical and inferior mesenteric ganglia. Arterial pressure was significantly lower in the thyroidectomized fetuses (34.0 +/- 0.15 mmHg) than in intact fetuses (44.7 +/- 0.2 mmHg; p less than 0.001). In contrast, plasma noradrenaline concentrations were significantly higher in the thyroidectomized fetuses (2.04 +/- 0.25 ng/ml) compared to the intact fetuses (0.99 +/- 0.08 ng/ml; P less than 0.001). In the intact fetuses there was a significant increase in plasma noradrenaline concentration and blood pressure during hypoxaemia, and bradycardia at the onset of hypoxaemia. In contrast, in the thyroidectomized fetuses hypoxaemia did not cause significant change in plasma catecholamine concentrations, blood pressure or heart rate. Infusion of tyramine produced a 1.9-fold increase of plasma noradrenaline in thyroidectomized fetuses compared to a 9.2-fold increase in the intact fetuses (P less than 0.05). Tyramine infusion caused a similar proportional increase of blood pressure in both thyroidectomized and intact fetuses. Heart rate decreased during the tyramine-induced hypertension in the intact fetus, but increased in the thyroidectomized fetuses.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Plasma catecholamine concentrations and dopamine-beta-hydroxylase activities were studied in 29 participants of a six-day cross-country ski-hike (260 km) to elucidate the adaptive responses of the sympatho-adrenal system to prolonged heavy exercise. Immediately after skiing on the first skiing day plasma noradrenaline concentrations appeared to be over twice as high as in the morning. On the morning of the fourth day noradrenaline levels had increased significantly when compared to those of the first morning. Concentrations after skiing on the fourth day were, however, about the same as in the first evening. After a submaximal ergometer test performed immediately after the skiing concentrations were still raised and the relative enhancement by this short-term exercise was about the same magnitude (40--60 %) on every test day. On the sixth day noradrenaline concentrations were about the same level as on the fourth day. Eleven days after the hike the basal noradrenaline levels were still about 25 % higher than before it. The changes of plasma adrenaline concentrations were in the same direction although not as striking as those of noradrenaline. Dopamine alterations were negligible. A significant but reversible decrease in plasma dopamine-beta-hydroxylase activities and cholesterol concentrations was found during the hike. The present results show that the sympatho-adrenal system is activated during the first few days of a ski-hike type prolonged exercise. A plateau developed in about four days. There were no signs of a decreased sympatho-adrenal response to a short-term heavy load.  相似文献

The plasma noradrenaline (NA) and adrenaline (A) concentration responses of seven young male athletes [15 (SD 1) years] and seven adult male athletes [25 (SD 6) years] were investigated together with the serum testosterone (Tes) concentration responses in four different half-squatting exercises. The loads, number of repetitions, exercise intensity and recovery between the sets were manipulated such that different types of metabolic demand could be expected. However, the amount of work done was kept equal in each kind of exercise. After the most exhausting unit of exercise (E3; two sets of 30 repetitions with 50% of 1 repetition maximum and with 2-min recovery between the sets) the plasma NA concentration was significantly lower in the younger than in the adult subjects [15.7 (SD 7.8) vs 32.7 (SD 13.2) nmol · l−1, P < 0.05], while the A concentrations were similar. In the other three exercises no differences in the plasma catecholamine concentration responses among the groups were observed. The postexercise Tes concentrations, however, were significantly lower in the younger than in the adult subjects in every exercise unit. No correlations between the plasma catecholamine and serum Tes concentration responses were observed in any of the exercise units in either group. The results of the present study may suggest reduced sympathetic nervous activity in the younger subjects compared to the adults in response to exhausting resistance exercise. The results may also suggest that the catecholamines were less involved in eliciting an increase in Tes secretion in these resistance exercises. Accepted: 11 November 1997  相似文献

This study was designed to find out whether rest intervals and prevention of dehydration during prolonged exercise inhibit a drift in metabolic rate, body temperature and hormonal response typically occurring during continuous work. For this purpose in ten healthy men the heart rate (fc), rectal temperature (Tre), oxygen uptake (VO2), as well as blood metabolite and some hormone concentrations were measured during 2-h exercise at approximately 50% maximal oxygen uptake split into four equal parts by 30-min rest intervals during which body water losses were replaced. During each 30-min exercise period there was a rapid change in Tre and fc superimposed on which, these values increased progressively in consecutive exercise periods (slow drift). The VO2 showed similar changes but there were no significant differences in the respiratory exchange ratio, pulmonary ventilation, mechanical efficiency and plasma osmolality between successive periods of exercise. Blood glucose, insulin and C-peptide concentrations decreased in consecutive exercise periods, whereas plasma free fatty acid, glycerol, catecholamine, growth hormone and glucagon concentrations increased. Blood lactate concentrations did not show any regular drift and the plasma cortisol concentration decreased during the first two exercise periods and then increased. In conclusion, in spite of the relatively long rest intervals between the periods of prolonged exercise and the prevention of dehydration several physiological and hormonal variables showed a distinct drift with time. It is suggested that the slow drift in metabolic rate could have been attributable in the main to the increased concentrations of heat liberating hormones.  相似文献

Plasma catecholamine concentrations were measured in 15 patients (six male) aged 14-63 years attending the casualty department with acute severe asthma (peak expiratory flow 27% (SEM 3%) of predicted). Nine patients were admitted and six were not. The plasma noradrenaline concentration, reflecting sympathetic nervous discharge, was two to three times normal in all patients and was significantly higher in those who required admission compared with those discharged home (mean 7.7 (SEM 0.6) v 4.7 (0.5) nmol/l (1.3 (SEM 0.1) v 0.8 (0.08) ng/ml); p less than 0.001). Plasma adrenaline concentration, however, was not increased in any patient. This surprising failure of the plasma adrenaline concentration to increase during the stress of an acute attack of asthma was unexplained and contrasts with the pronounced rise in plasma adrenaline and noradrenaline concentrations in acute myocardial infarction, heart failure, and septicaemia. The failure of plasma adrenaline concentration to increase in acute asthma is unlikely to be explained by adrenal exhaustion, but it may be another example of impaired adrenaline secretion in asthma.  相似文献

The possible involvement of central noradrenergic and/or adrenergic circuits in central mechanisms controlling free fatty acids and glucose levels was investigated in conscious pigeons. The effects of intracerebroventricular injections of noradrenaline (80 nmol) or adrenaline (80 nmol) on plasma free fatty acids and glucose concentrations were examined. The possible role of the autonomic nervous system, of sympathetic terminals and of pituitary hormone release in the metabolic responses induced by intracerebroventricular injections of adrenaline and noradrenaline was investigated by systemic pretreatment with a ganglionic blocker (hexamethonium, 1 mg/100 g), guanethidine (5 mg/100 g), and somatostatin (15 μg/100 g), respectively, 15 min before intracerebroventricular administration of adrenaline, noradrenaline or vehicle. Intracerebroventricular noradrenaline injections strongly increased plasma free fatty acid concentration but evoked no change in blood glucose levels, while adrenaline treatment increased glycemia without affecting free fatty acid levels. Hexamethonium did not block the increase in plasma free fatty acids induced by noradrenaline, while somatostatin pretreatment abolished noradrenaline-induced lipolysis during the experimental period. Adrenaline-induced hyperglycemia was blocked by systemic injections of somatostatin, hexamethonium and guanethidine. The present results suggest that: (1) adrenergic and noradrenergic mechanisms may participate in central control of blood glucose and free fatty acids, respectively, as observed in mammals, (2) noradrenaline-induced lipolysis may be mediated by pituitary mechanisms, and (3) postganglionic sympathetic fibers, possibly innervating the endocrine pancreas, may be involved in adrenaline-induced hyperglycemia.

Indomethacin has been reported to potentiate the release of noradrenaline from sympathetic nerve endings in vitro and to increase urinary noradrenaline excretion in rats. We have studied the influence of indomethacin on plasma catecholamine levels in 10 normal men, using measurement of plasma renin activity (PRA) as an index of the pharmacodynamic effect of indomethacin. Both in the supine and standing positions indomethacin failed to alter the plasma concentrations of noradrenaline, adrenaline or dopamine, while PRA was markedly suppressed. It is concluded that in the intact human indomethacin does not influence catecholamine concentrations.  相似文献

Adrenomedullin (ADM) release is enhanced in pheochromocytoma, chronic heart failure (HF), hypertension and renal diseases. This study was designed to test the hypothesis that ADM secretion increases also in response to acute stimuli, such as static effort and to compare plasma ADM response to this stimulus in patients with chronic HF and healthy persons. Eight male HF patients (II/III class NYHA) and eight healthy subjects (C) performed two 3-min bouts of static handgrip at 30% of maximal voluntary contraction, alternately with each hand without any break between the bouts. At the end of both exercise bouts and in 5 min of the recovery period, plasma ADM and catecholamines were determined. In addition, heart rate, blood pressure, and stroke volume (SV) were measured. The baseline plasma ADM and noradrenaline levels were higher, whilst plasma adrenaline and SV were lower in HF patients than in C group. The 1st exercise bout caused an increase in plasma ADM from 3.32 +/- 0.57 to 4.98 +/- 0.59 pmol l(-1) (p<0.01) in C and from 6.88 +/- 0.58 to 7.80 +/- 0.43 pmol x l(-1) (p<0.02) in HF patients. The 2nd exercise bout did not produce further elevation in plasma ADM and during recovery the hormone concentration declined to pre-exercise or lower values. There were no differences between groups in exercise-induced increases in plasma ADM. Plasma ADM correlated with SV (r = -0.419) and with noradrenaline concentrations (r = 0.427). It is concluded that static exercise causes the short-lasting increase in plasma ADM concentration which is similar in healthy subjects and in patients with mild heart failure.  相似文献

Little is known about the effect of chronic angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibition on the catecholamine levels in fowls. In this study, we investigated the effects of chronic lisinopril dihydrate (Ld) application on the plasma levels of adrenaline and noradrenaline and on the blood pressure. Lisinopril was given in different concentrations (25, 75 and 250 mg/l drinking water) to the white Leghorn chickens for 9 weeks, while the control group drank tap water only. Twenty-eight hours after the last lisinopril application, arterial blood pressure (BP), plasma adrenaline and noradrenaline levels, plasma renin (PRA) and plasma angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) activities were determined. In all concentrations, lisinopril significantly increased PRA and decreased ACE activities. Arterial BP was decreased only in the group receiving high lisinopril concentration (Controls 119+/-10.27, Ld3 98+/-5.4 mm Hg). However, the lower lisinopril concentrations did not alter arterial BP compared to the control group. Plasma noradrenaline levels were decreased in a concentration-dependent manner (47-58%), but plasma adrenaline levels remained unchanged. The heart weight/body weight ratio was not changed in any of the lisinopril-treated groups. The persistent decrease in the blood pressure after lisinopril treatment was not directly related to a decrease of plasma ACE activity or plasma noradrenaline levels. Its mechanism still remains to be elucidated.  相似文献

Levels of free plasma catecholamines were simultaneously determined in 10 cyclists using capillary blood from one ear lobe and venous blood from one cubital vein. Catecholamine concentrations were higher in the ear lobe blood than in the venous blood at rest and during graded exercise. Average differences amounted to 1.7 nmol X 1(-1) (dopamine), 2.1 nmol X 1(-1) (noradrenaline) and 1.9 nmol X 1(-1) (adrenaline) at rest and increased only to 8.8 nmol X 1(-1) for noradrenaline during exercise. We assume that higher concentrations of dopamine and adrenaline in the capillary blood point to a significant neuronal release of these catecholamines, similar to noradrenaline. Catecholamine concentrations in capillary blood may better reflect sympathetic drive and delivery of catecholamines to the circulation than the concentrations in venous blood.  相似文献
